The nest, located on a couple's property in Bullock County, appeared to be a large tree stump from a distance.

However, when the couple got a closer look, they discovered the giant nest.

Officials said yellow jackets are usually known for building nests on the ground and not on water, the report said.

The couple told a television station in Savannah that they don't plan to move the nest until the weather is cooler and the insects calm down.
